Pork with butter bean mash




2 small pork loin chops (boneless), pounded thin

1 tlbs olive oil plus 1 tsp butter

thyme

salt and pepper

juice of 1/2 a lemon

can of butter beans

Heat the oil and butter in a small frying pan. Strip the leaves from a few sprigs of fresh thyme and toss them in.   Fry the chops on one side, then flip them over, salting and peppering the cooked side. Fry the pork loins till they are just done through, crispy on the outside but not dry on the inside – this is very quick, maybe 3 minutes a side (assuming you have pounded them very thin!) Squeeze over the lemon juice and remove the pork to a warmed plate.

Dump in your can of drained and rinsed butter beans.  Stir them around in the pan juices until just warmed through – check your plate of pork and tip any juices that came out of the pork into the beans. Roughly mash them with the back of a fork.  Add a bit more oil to give them a more creamy consistency, if they seem dry.

Plate up and eat
